Valve actuator shaft coupling 125 is designed to sheave portions.In a particular embodiment, corresponding full sheave will have eight sections around its circumference equal distribution, and indeed achieves three section 125a for valve actuator shaft coupling 125.Single section 125a includes the circular side face 125b and sagittal plane 125d of spill.Circular side face 125b and sagittal plane 125d connects via little middle side face (unmarked).Sagittal plane 125d forms engaging groove 125c radially between adjacent section 125a.
Fig. 4 shows the interaction designing and illustrating between stepping switch mechanism of valve actuator 225, and it is realized by valve actuator 225 and valve actuator shaft coupling 125 combination.Valve actuator 225 includes body 225a, centrepin 225b and eccentric engaging pin 225c, and the single parts of valve actuator 225 are rigidly attached or molding in a unitary manner.Valve actuator 225 is rigidly coupled to the output shaft of valve gear 227b so that centrepin 225b and output shaft are coaxial, thus when output shaft rotates, valve actuator body 225a and engaging pin 225c rotates around centrepin 225b.As seen from Figure 4, centrepin 225b actually wherein has and points to the pin part that the section of engaging pin 225c is cut.The diameter of centrepin 225b is corresponding to the diameter of circular side face 125, and the diameter of engaging pin 225c is corresponding to the width of engaging groove 125c, slidably engage so that being formed between engaging pin 225c with engaging groove 125c and between centrepin 225a and circular side face 125b substantially free of rotation (play-free).
Fig. 4 a is shown in which that valve cell 120 is in the configuration of filling position.In this state, centrepin 225b and circular side face 225b is in slide to rotate and engages.As long as engaging pin 225c does not engages with engaging groove 125c, then the most therefore any rotation and especially holding shaft 225b of valve actuator 225 cause any motion of valve actuator shaft coupling 125.Via joint, valve actuator 125 is kept and is locked in its position.
In order to the operation of stepping switch mechanism is described, it is assumed that valve actuator 225 turns clockwise, as shown in arrow corresponding in Fig. 4 a, 4b, 4c.Fig. 4 a shows that engaging pin 225c and engaging groove 125c reaches to engage the moment engaged.Further rotating of valve actuator 225 causes engaging pin 225c radially-inwardly to advance in engaging groove 125c, and via the sliding engagement with cell wall, makes valve actuator shaft coupling 125 rotate in the counterclockwise direction together with shutoff valve body 126.
Fig. 4 b shows that engaging pin 225c is in the configuration of its radially inner most position in engaging groove 125c.The radial outward movement of the engaging pin 225c caused in engaging groove 125c and the most counterclockwise of valve actuator shaft coupling 125 are rotated by turning clockwise further of valve actuator 225, to the last engaging pin 225c leaves engaging groove 125c, thus terminates to engage joint between engaging pin 225c with engaging groove 125c.Fig. 4 c shows that engaging pin 225c and engaging groove 125c is disengaged from the configuration engaged the most subsequently.
It can be seen that at least one in all time points with centrepin 225b or engaging pin 225c of the sheave of valve actuator 125 is in joint from Fig. 4 a, 4b, 4c.When engaging pin 225b is in and engages the position engaged with engaging groove 125c, rotating via positive orientation guide by being controlled with the interaction of engaging pin 225c of valve actuator shaft coupling 225.When engaging pin 225c is in not with the position of the interaction of engaging groove 125c, valve actuator shaft coupling 125 is locked into position via the joint of centrepin 225b with circular side face 125b.
Configuration shown in Fig. 4 c is neutral configuration, in this configuration, valve cell had both been not at filling position not also in drain position, but there is not, with between arbitrary in fill port 127a or discharge port 127c, both centres that fluid couples respectively at pump port 127a.Turning clockwise further of plunger actuator 225 will cause repetition aforementioned sequence, wherein differs only in another engagement in engaging pin 225c and two groove 125c.When engaging pin 225c and the second engaging groove 125c is disengaged from engaging, valve cell 110 is in drain position.The most complete rotation of valve actuator 225 correspondingly causes the rotation of valve actuator shaft coupling 125, and it corresponds respectively to the angle between adjacent sheave type section 125a or engaging groove 125c.
Exemplary design for shutoff valve body as shown in Figure 3, the order that engagement continuously between engaging pin 225c and two engaging groove 125c engages and is disengaged from engaging causes valve actuator shaft coupling 125 and shutoff valve body 126 half-twist altogether, and it corresponds respectively to the angle between radial passage 126b, 126c.In modification, valve actuator shaft coupling 125 can have more or less of section 125a, and the switching between filling position and drain position can be via more than one intermediate steps or do not have any intermediate steps to realize, as long as total angle is corresponding to according to the switch angle needed for shutoff valve body design.For the modular design of Miniaturized portable infusion system, shown exemplary design is considered as the good compromise considering the such as factor of friction (and thereby taking into account the design of energy expenditure and valve actuator), valve gear reduction ratio and overall dimensions.
It is to be realized by the similar fashion rotated counterclockwise with valve actuator 225 that the state of switching valve cell is back to filling position.
Advantageously, it is provided with two pairs of retainers (not being shown respectively), it limits the rotary motion between valve actuator shaft coupling 125 and shutoff valve body 126 relative to valve chest, when shutoff valve body is respectively at filling position or drain position, this type of further motion of valve actuator shaft coupling 125 and shutoff valve body 126 is prevented from.Therefore, rotary motion is limited to the angular range between filling position and drain position respectively.
The design of retainer is included for this type of, when such as motor is used as valve actuator, it is possible to achieve simply and effectively control.Owing to the motion further of valve actuator shaft coupling 125 and shutoff valve body 126 is impossible, so when reaching filling position or drainage position, activating further of motor will cause detectable stepping to lose.In this way, it is possible to detection filling position and drain position are without extra sensor.
In the description and be previously given from Fig. 4 a to 4c, stepping switch mechanism is used to be made apparent from de for the major advantage of threshold switch.
As it was previously stated, when engaging pin 225c does not engages any engaging groove 125c, for all position of rotation of valve actuator 225, restriction well and lock-up valve driver shaft coupling 125 and the position of rotation of corresponding shutoff valve body 126.The independence of this effective holding valve actuator 225 and the especially specific orientation of engaging pin 225c.This is in the diagram by the situation in region represented by letter " B ", corresponding to the anglec of rotation of about 180 °, the half that i.e. valve actuator 225 is fully rotating.When switching between filling position and drain position respectively, as long as the complete sequence being engaged and disengaged from guaranteed between engaging pin 225c and engaging groove 125, then valve actuator 225 starts its motion and therefore eventually stop at which position of rotation after handover be inessential at which definite position of rotation.Therefore, the required precision for valve actuator and control thereof significantly reduces.
Stepping switch mechanism is also advantageous relative to the connection of administration unit 100 and driver element 200.Foregoing, this process is by not having special mechanical ability and having user's (such as diabetics) of the dyskinesia and/or visual disorder in many cases and implement on a regular basis.As long as engaging pin 225c is in disengaged condition, then unique between valve actuator 225 with valve actuator shaft coupling 125 couples is to be provided by the sliding engagement between centrepin 225b and circle side face 125b.Therefore, coupling between administration unit mounting structure 195 and driver element mounting structure 295 and engage and can be set up relative to the simple translational motion of driver element 200 by administration unit 100, specific orientation or position of rotation without valve actuator 225 are set up.By in this way administration unit 100 being connected to driver element 200, automatically set up correct operating position, and thus automatically set up valve actuator 225 and couple with the operable of valve actuator shaft coupling 125.
By keeping the alternative connection form (such as valve actuator and a pair spur gear of valve actuator shaft coupling and valve transmission) coupled to compare with via angle, it is possible to be best understood by the aforementioned advantages of stepping switch mechanism.This type of couples the accurate relative orientation needing connection element.Via the connection of gear, such as spur gear, such as, the tooth of in gear and the backlash of other wheel alignment is needed correct to engage joint to set up.
Favorable property for driving stepping switch mechanism that valve moves is closely related with the big volume property of the stepping switch mechanism being suitable for, drive or input element (valve actuator) and driven or output element (valve actuator shaft coupling) be in engagement engage only be temporarily used for switch and drive or input element complete rotation a part on, and be otherwise disengaged.Common angle for such as spur gear keeps gear just contrary, drives or input element is in driven or output element and engages joint continuously.Therefore, as, in the broad variety of (such as) clockwork and wrist-watch, in film camera and projector, changed the other type of stepping switch mechanism used in mechanism at the pen of chemistry/medical analysis instrument or drawing apparatus and may be adapted to the purpose of Vavle switching equally.
The characteristic of stepping switch mechanism with need not to position specially alternative couple compared be also advantageous, such as compared with coupling with via the friction of a pair friction pulley, wherein friction pulley is typically crucial and such as reduces and be therefore subjected to fault owing to producing and coupling the friction unintentionally of tolerance, lubricant and abrasion.
But, making administration unit 100 and driver element 200 couple in the foregoing manner needs the position of rotation of valve actuator shaft coupling 125, and in this position of rotation, arbitrary circular side face 125b is coaxially aligned with centrepin 225b.For shown embodiment, in filling position and drainage position, (one of them is shown in fig .4) respectively and centre position shown in Fig. 4 c meets this requirement.For assembling, no matter shutoff valve body is in filling position or drain position, and both of which can be limited well by foregoing retainer.Owing to administration unit is typically the aseptic disposable product that is used continuously some skies and is dropped subsequently, administration unit 100 is only implemented once to couple.Therefore, it can administration unit be provided in limited be in filling position and exhaust position by producer.
